In The Beginning

I’ve tried this blogging thing so many times, I’m guilty of desecrating the Internet universe with my numerous abandoned blog webpage waste. It’s not for lack of desire or subject matter to blog about – it’s more of not finding out exactly what my purpose in life is all about. Well, all that has changed in the recent months. I believe this one will be a keeper.

Now, where to begin? How about I explain what the picture above is all about?

I’m an artist. I like to think so, anyway. If one can draw a decent picture of an apple or a banana, I guess that would give one the right to call oneself an artist, yes? Modesty aside, I can draw more than a decent interpretation of any fruit. Check out my digital art here.

Along with drawing, writing is one of my talents that has befuddled me. I’m good at it but there doesn’t seem to be any purpose for it. Until now.

Let’s just say, I have been enlightened. If you’re thinking I’m one of those New Spirituality converts, then that I am. I am not ashamed to say it. In fact, I am promoting it. I think ‘promulgating’ is a better word. I am promulgating The New Spirituality.

That picture sort of depicts what I felt when I succumbed to the awareness of my soul. Succumbed is the wrong word. More like awareness. It’s been there all along and I’ve sort of discovered its existence. I felt so free! Free from my previous beliefs – the belief that God is a condemning, vengeful, needy and will-send-you-to-eternal-damnation-if-you-do-not-do-as-he-commands-kind-of God. God is neither a he or a she, by the way. And it would be a refreshing change if we referred to God as a she once in a while, yes?

Well then, with that said, you may have an idea what this blog is all about. This about my life in The New World. It’s all about “Joy To The New World.” And if you want to join me on this journey, hop on! Here’s hoping it will be an exciting ride!

If you like, you can read the Conversations With God series of books by Neale Donald Walsch – to know more about this awareness of the soul thing. Happy reading!
